Rock Pushing

Krackle and I rolled up about 6:10 expecting Ball Joint to run in soon. According to Stogie, no one else was showing up, so I prepared an extra heavy arm day for Krackle. To Stogie’s surprise 6 other HIM started showing up ready for a beat down.

 

Warm Up:

20 SSH IC

15 Gravel Pickers IC

Time to run and grab a Block. Wait!! Ball Joint had brought replacements because Bed Pan keeps breaking blocks with his Hacksaw impressions. Back to Ball Joint’s truck.

 

Mosey to the courts.

Weinke:

Team up and complete the push.

200 Curls

400 Merkins

600 Thrusters

One member works, while the other Farmer carries their block to the end of the courts and back.

The mumble chatter really started to flow as the teams got to the Thrusters. Montross took off for laps to save his back for the summer months.

I omaha’d the crew and brought them in for some abs.

50 weighted American Hammers (1 side)

50 weighted LBCs

Moseyed to put the blocks up

Moseyed back to the Flag and completed a round of Merry

Pledged the Flag

Montross noted that we still had a few minutes and suggested Iron Hulks, so we completed a full round. Time’s up.

Announcements:

Q vs Q @ Folsom on 4/1

A good crowd as usual showed up for a Tuesday morning Bootcamp led by the Stinky Bird, YHC.

Warmup: SSH x 25 IC, Imperial Walker x 25 IC, Mtn Climbers x 25 IC, Big Boys x 20 OYO.

Zombie walk to the center of the parking lot for some CountDown. 15 Merkins on one side, 14 Big Boys 2 poles away. 13

Merkins at the start… you get the idea.

Once complete, head over to the baseball field concession stand for a short blast of Mary, 5 men called exercises and counted IC for 10 reps without a break. Followed this with some step ups.

Head back and take a lap around the parking lot to the school for some Dips and Derkins, 20 each OYO?

PUB 3/23/23

13 HIM met to push rocks on 3/23/23.  With just a few days prior to P200 and Moritmer we had some real diehards out.  The route took us to the armory and back.  I originally planned to cut it short due to upcoming race but Waterboy was there to keep me company and 5 miles flew by.
